“We want to be part of that negotiating team,” Farage said in Southampton, southern England.
But it will also increase pressure on Labour’s Corbyn to come out explicitly for a second referendum on EU membership.

The Liberal Democrats, who campaigned under the slogan “Bollocks to Brexit”, oppose Brexit and want a second referendum to stop it.
